Our Cause/Nuestra Causa

El estimado actor de television Humberto Garcia Brandt fue paralizado por una bala el 14 de noviembre de 2008. Esa noche, mientras manejaba por Caracas, ladrones lo pararon para robarle el carro. Mientras corria, le dispararon en el pecho. La bala lo impacto en la espalda y quedo alojada en su vertebra.
Humberto Garcia Brandt, a respected Venezuelan actor with an illustrious career in Venezuelan television, was paralyzed by a bullet on November 14, 2008. That night, as he was driving through Caracas, two robbers stopped him to steal his car. As he for his life, he was shot in the chest. One bullet lodged in his spine and is still there.
Dada la crisis economica en Venezuela, Humberto ha llegado al punto que requiere de nuestra ayuda para cubrir sus gastos y mejor la calidad de su vida. Necesitamos recaudar fondos para cubrir sus necesidades basicas como alimentos, vivienda, medicamentos, panales, y terapia fisica. Su sueno es regresar a la television donde tuvo una carrera exitosa durante medio ciglo. Ayudemoslo!

Because of the Venezuelan economic crisis, Humberto has reached a point where he needs help covering his basic necessities, such as food, housing, medication, and physical therapy. His dream is to return to television where he held a successful career in the eighties as a soap opera star in telenovelas.

DE HUMBERTO/FROM HUMBERTO

“TODA MI VIDA LA DEDIQUÉ A INTERPRETAR PERSONAJES DIFERENTES PARA LLEGAR A SUS HOGARES. TENGO 50 AÑOS DE CARRERA ARTÍSTICA, AHORITA ME ENCUENTRO EN UNA SITUACIÓN MUY DIFÍCIL, NECESITO AYUDA DE CADA UNO DE USTEDES, LO QUE PUEDAN. NO TENGO COMO PAGAR MIS GASTOS DEL DÍA A DÍA, TAMPOCO VIVO EN BUENAS CONDICIONES, DEBO ASISTIR A UN CDI PARA PODER HACER MIS EJERCICIOS, NO TENGO TAMPOCO RECURSOS PARA LOS MEDICAMENTOS, ALIMENTOS, PAÑALES, VIVIENDA,­ ETC. NO TENGO DINERO PARA CONTRATAR A UN PROFESIONAL QUE ME HAGA LAS TERAPIAS PRIVADAS. SOLO QUIERO MEJORAR MI CALIDAD DE VIDA. CON TU AYUDA LO PUEDO LOGRAR. AGRADEZCO TANTO LO QUE PUEDAS COLABORAR. GRACIAS DE TODO CORAZÓN.

DIOS los bendiga a todos. Estare siempre muy agradecido”.

"My whole life, I reached your homes by playing different characters. I have a fifty year artistic career. Now I'm in a very difficult situation. I need help from you. Anything you can give. I don't have enough money to cover my basic daily expenses. I'm not living in good conditions. I have to go to a special center for my exercises, but I don't have enough money to cover my medication, food, diapers, and housing. I don't have money to hire a private physical therapist. I want to improve the quality of my life. With your help, I can achieve it. Thank you to everyone who can help. From the bottom of my heart. 

God bless you, I'll always be thankful to you."

lo que Necesitamos/What We Need:

He needs funding to cover his basic medical expenses:

  • Medication, foods, diapers
  • A place where he can live in dignity
  • Physical therapist so he can move muscles
  • Every little bit helps!

el impacto/The Impact

Venezuela has a severe economic crisis and that has created a shortage of medical supplies and foods.

  • The bullet lodged in Humberto's back paralyzed him.  
  • He requires daily physical therapy and continual medical attention. 
  • He also needs funding to cover his basic daily living necessities.

Risks & Challenges

Given that Humberto has been paralyzed since 2008, he has been unable to work in the television industry where he became beloved in so many telenovelas.  

  • Many will understand what it is like to go through challenges.
  • I believe that if each of us give a little bit, we can improve Humberto's life.
